ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING

The defect
Forest River, Inc. (Forest River) is recalling certain 2024-2025 Forest River Aurora and Coachmen Catalina travel trailers. Please see the 573 report for the complete list of model numbers. The front exterior accent lights, awning, and auto-leveling system may be incorrectly wired and not have proper over current circuit protection.
What it can cause
Wiring without circuit protection may become damaged and short circuit, increasing the risk of a fire.
What the dealer does
Dealers will add circuit protection to the accent lights, awning, and auto leveling system, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 29, 2025. Owners may contact Forest River customer service at 1-574-825-4995. Forest River's number for this recall is 300-1922.
NHTSA's note
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1- 888-275-9171), or go to www.safercar.gov.

The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.

Which vehicles

A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares

At 975 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 58% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2024 to 2025, so the oldest vehicles on it were one model year old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.

Forest River vehicles have been recalled over the electrical system 44 times before this, most recently in May 2024 as 24V325000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.

The vehicles on this campaign carry 11 other recalls published here, the newest being: 25V682000 (electrical system), 25V245000 (structure), 25V230000 (equipment), 25V149000 (equipment).

Check your own car

A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.

Filed by Forest River, Inc. with NHTSA on April 18, 2025 as campaign 25V264000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
